Developing Clean Vinyl Technology® (CVT) Wallcoverings
What was our inspiration?
Len-Tex was inspired to meet the same stringent standards as found in children’s and medical products, i.e. the federal ban on phthalates. Committed to social and environmental responsibility, Len-Tex saw an opportunity to develop a better wallcovering and created Clean Vinyl Technology® (CVT).
